Exuding Rat Pack cool, Pier 66 Restaurant & Lounge was a swinging place in the 1950s and 60s, man. It was built in 1957 by the Phillips Petroleum Company at the behest of its chairman K.S. "Boots" Adams, while lived on the Intracoastal Waterway. Its name, Pier 66, was mean to echo the company's gasoline brand, Phillips 66. It opened as a full-service marina resort with 110 slips.
